Very convenient in the application of gels from burns - they have a gentle texture, are applied easily and gently, and besides do not leave an unpleasant fatty film on the surface of the skin.

Indications of the gels for burns

As we have already said, special burn gels have a pleasant consistency and minimal amount of fat in the composition. Due to this property, such preparations are well and instantly absorbed by damaged tissues and quickly facilitate the condition of the victim.

In addition, gels often have a soothing, cooling and moisturizing effect on the damaged superficial layers of the skin. That is why gel preparations are not recommended for use in deep burn lesions of III and IV degree. At the I and II degree, it is not only possible to use such means, but also it is necessary.

Gels are suitable for the treatment of any type of light burns:
